This is a recording of my invited interview in Indonesian (Rajeg, 2017) addressing part of the issue discussed in my Doctoral thesis (Rajeg, 2019). The interview was conducted for/by SBS Radio Language series, especially SBS Indonesian Language, a part of the SBS Radio Australia. The followings are opening lines quoted directly from the interview webpage:


"What are the different words used to express happiness in Indonesian? How are the different words used in metaphors? How do their different meanings illustrate different understandings of what happiness might be? Gede Primahadi Wijaya Rajeg explains."




News on the interview is also covered on the webpage of the School of Languages, Literatures, Culture & Linguistics (LLCL), Monash University, Australia.
